To any lacemakers who feel nervous when others criticise their lace. I am not adamant that lace techniques are set in stone and, as I recently mentioned, if it looks good and stands up to use as intended it is a good piece of work. If you adapt a technique (or inadvertently do so) and someone says you have done it wrong, just look down your nose and say firmly 'It took a long time to get that effect.' I have been surprised how many of my students have found it works!
Best wishes with your group, I hope it is as friendly as mine. Alex (I also say the name as in arachnid, in fact I have always addressed members of Arachne as arachnids - what else? Maybe it is because I used to teach science) - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected]. For help, write to [email protected]
